75% of voters predict coalition victory

THREE-QUARTERS of Australians believe a coalition victory is imminent on Saturday, the latest ReachTEL poll has found.

The poll, conducted by automated phone survey of 3853 voters on Tuesday night, shows the coalition maintaining an election-winning 52-48 two-party preferred vote over Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's struggling Labor team.

The poll found a whopping 74.2 per cent of voters, including almost half those voting Labor, believed the coalition will win.

Opposition Leader Tony Abbott is ahead of Mr Rudd as preferred PM, with 52.9 per cent saying he would do a better job.

On primary votes, Labor stands on 35.3 per cent (down 0.4), Liberals 41.3 (down 1.9), The Nationals 2.9 (down 0.4), Greens 9.7 (down 0.4) and the Katter Australian Party 0.9 per cent (down 0.4).

Businessman Clive Palmer appears to have made an impression, with support for his Palmer United Party up two points to 4.4 per cent.

So, why is TA lying claiming that it will be close?  Or maybe he is just misinformed?

Members of my family have also predicted a win by the coalition but they wont be voting that way.  You never can tell can you from a misleading poll like that.

I predict that if there is a coalition victory that there will be a lot of 'told you so' threads.
